COOKIE DOUGH ICE CREAM INGREDIENTS
You will need:
- 2 cups whipping cream
- 10 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/3 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS
TOPPINGS: Use sprinkles, chocolate syrup, or any other ice cream toppings to make this dessert even more delicious!
HOW TO MAKE THIS COOKIE DOUGH ICE CREAM RECIPE
STEP ONE: Blend the butter and brown sugar together.
STEP TWO: Slowly add the flour.
STEP THREE: Add the vanilla and chocolate chips into the mixture. This is your cookie dough. Set it aside for now.
STEP FOUR: Whip the whipping cream with a mixer for at least 4 minutes, until soft peaks form. The cream will go through several stages. It will go through a bubbly phase to a slightly thickened phase, then to a rippling phase, and finally a puffy and airy phase.
PRO TIP: Be careful not to overmix the cream. Past the puffy stage, the cream will turn to butter! There’s no fixing that, so go carefully.
STEP FIVE: Gently stir in the sweetened condensed milk along with the vanilla extract.
PRO TIP: Avoid over mixing, you don’t want to deflate the cream!
STEP SIX: Crumble in the pieces of the no-bake cookie dough into the ice cream, folding the mixture over carefully. Reserve about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the dough to sprinkle over the top of the ice cream.
STEP SEVEN: Pour the ice cream mixture into a clean loaf or casserole pan lined with parchment paper. Smooth it out into an even layer with the back of a spoon or an offset spatula. Sprinkle crumble on top.
STEP EIGHT: Cover the ice cream with tinfoil or plastic wrap and freeze it for 4 hours.
PRO TIP: You can also freeze your ice cream overnight.

This cookie dough ice cream is the perfect treat for a family dinner and the delicious, classic flavor makes this no-churn ice cream worth skipping the store. I love to get a bowl and pile in scoops of ice cream but this dessert will stay intact enough to use a cone, unlike a lot of other homemade ice creams.
